What color is this one?

XTS · 03-14-2012, 06:50 PM

Hi guys. Can anyone help me with the name or code of this brown color? I know it's a BMW Individual color, but i don't find it on BMW color pallete - it's not Mettalic A17 Havana. Someone told me it's called "royal brown 2" but i don't find any info related to this. thanks

WOW! Stunning color!

yeah i think it's great too but not so many people love it. that's why it's "individual"

. i had 3 bimmers, 2 black and 1 silver and i had enough of these 2 colors. i want to buy a F10 just like this one and i cant figure out what color is. I went to a BMW official dealer and they said they will send the picture to Munich, Germany because they can't tell either. thanks anyway

Looks like Marrakesh Brown from the X1, 1 Series and X6
Code B09

positiveions · 03-15-2012, 05:34 AM

why does this color looks way better on the 5 series?

It changes a LOT depending on how much light hits it and the angle of the light

It can go from very light like in the picture of the nose of the 116i to very dark like the rear of the X1 picture

thanks a lot. i am 99% sure that's the color. i am waiting for dealer's answer from Munich, just by curiosity, but i am sure that's it. you really know your things; you are a true BMW fan indeed

. thank you very much, once again.

Looks similar to Sepang Bronze.

Terpinator · 03-31-2012, 04:59 AM

Looks to be Champaign Quartz. (Image from the UK website).

If anyone can confirm, please let us know.

It may be Havana. I could not find a BMW Individual color with brown in without the individual Champagne Quartz Metallic when I ordered the 2012 mod.

lindros2 · 04-06-2012, 10:16 AM

The original photo has a lot of yellow (or red/orange) in it, which could be skewing the "match" by posters.

If I were to guess, I would vote for Marrakesh Brown (I saw this on an X1 at the Welt in Munich).

Ellmat · 04-06-2012, 10:54 AM

My guess is that is called "Champagne Quratz"

JNoSol · 04-06-2012, 05:14 PM

It's called Mojave Metallic in the U.S. If you order Marrakesh Brown, your car will look like crap (literally).
